Speaker of Parliament László Kövér discussed bilateral ties, relations between China and eastern and central European countries, as well as the fight against Covid-19, in a videoconference with Li Zhanshu, chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress of China, on Friday.
In the call, Kövér thanked Li for the medical equipment China provided to Hungary during the first wave of the coronavirus pandemic, parliament’s press chief told MTI.
